Which one is correct?
1. I would rather he went to school rather go home.
2. I would rather he went to school than went home.
 
You have an error in sentence 1.
 
Yes, you seem to have used a word you didn't mean to use in sentence 1.

Anyway, it doesn't matter because sentence 2 is the correct one. You should keep both verbs in the same tense.
 
Yes to all of the comments above.

And then there's: "I'd rather he went to school than home."
